What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a deep state of relaxation, when the mind is very receptive to suggestions made during hypnosis.  These suggestions create beneficial changes in ideas or behaviour and encourage more sensible, balanced or helpful attitudes to reality. 
Mind and body affect each other and the person as a whole is benefitted by this holistic approach.
The number of sessions required usually varies from person to person, however most people feel some benefit from hypnotherapy after the first session.

​

Can anyone be hypnotised?

Most people can, providing they are able to understand the things they have to do in order to achieve this state.

​

Can I be made to say or do anything against my will whilst I am in hypnosis?

No.  You are free to accept or reject any suggestions made.

​

Will I be aware of what is happening or being said whilst I am in the hypnosis state?

Yes.  You will feel deeply relaxed but will never lose contact with the Hypnotherapist’s voice.

​

What happens if I don't come out of trance or something happens to the hypnotherapist before I am brought out?

You would simply come out of the trance naturally as the rapport would be lost with the hypnotherapist.  No one has ever remained in trance indefinitely.

​

Will I be able to drive afterwards?

Yes.  You will still be feeling relaxed, however your actions and reactions will be functioning efficiently.
